At that point I decided I would do whatever I had to to finish it. So I trimmed the blocks to match the smallest one and went ahead. I think it came out pretty good.
It did for sure! Stay with the stitchin'...it's habit forming ya know! The top looks fabulous and the TOES aren't bad either! LOL :thumbup:

Wow! Lots of triangles in your FIRST quilt! I have been sewing a long time and I still avoid those suckers.

This is really cute and you will be so proud when your nephew gets bigger and hauls it around. (Congrats, by the way!)
